when the bearings of the cutterhead need replacement, remove the
entire cutterhead with bea-rings and housing from the base casting
back out the hexagon head cap screw from each bearing housing
which is fastened to the machined curved seats of the base casting.
We suggest the customer purchase an additional cutterhead as-
sembly complete with bearings and houslngs. The extra cutterhead
assembly is necessary. To keep the machine in operation when the
original cutterhead is sent back to the factory for repairs, such as,
replacement of bearings, grinding and resetting the knives. The ad-
ditional cost of an extra cutterhead assembly is justifled when maxi-
mum production of high quality type work is required.
When mounting the cutterhead to the base casting of the jointer, be
sure the machined curved seats of the base casting are cleaned free
from any dust, dirt, or grease to obtain a good tight fit.
FENCE MOVEMENT
Your jointer's fence has positive s tops al 45° and 90˚ to allow quick
return of the positions after performing beveling ocerations at dif-
fe-rent angle settings. The 90˚ stop adjuslable bolt and tab that can
be rotated out of the way when the fence angle is to overlew of the
fence is shown in figure 20.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT slide the fence across the cutterhead table,
it can cause scratching to the table.
TO CHANGE THE FENCE ANGLE:
1. Loosen the lock handle.
2. Turn the tab away from the 90° positive stop bolt.
3. Tilt the fence to the desired angle and tighten the lock handle.
TO RETURN THE FENCE TO 90°:
1. Loosen the lock handle.
2. Return the fence to its upright position.
3. Flip the stop tab back to its down position.
4. Move the fence until the 90° positive stop bolt touches the tab.
5. Tighten the lock handle. Over or under - tightening the lock han-
dle will affect the final angle on the fence. Check the angle of the
fence with a high quality machinist's or try a square. Readjust if
necessary.
90° STOP ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: the following procedures for the 90˚ and 45˚ stops assume the
outfeed table has been adjusted correctly.
1. Place a square on the outfeed table
fairly close of the cutterhead, see fig-
ure 12.
2. Rough adjustment can be made by
loosening the checknut on the de-
gree tilting rod and turning the rod
itself, it may be necessary to insert a
small tod through the tilting rod for
better leverage.
To adjust, loosen the checknut on the positive stop bolt, then turn
the bolt against the tab ultil the fence contacts the edge of the
square evenly.
3. Tighten the checnut on the stop bolt and tilt the fence forward,
then back against the stop.
4. Check again with the square. Tightening the checknut will move
the stop bolt slightly, co some trial and error may be necessary to
perfct your settings.

45° STOP ADJUSTMENT
When the fence is properly aligned,it will be perpendicular to the
outfeed table. The fence can also be tilted away from the table by
loosening the lock handle, lif-ting up the 90˚ positive stop tab and
moving the fence in the desired direction.
1. Loosen checknut and lower fence until it rests on the stop bolt.
2. Using a bevel gauge set to 45˚ place the heel of the bevel on the
outfeed table, and the blade against the fence.
3. If there is a gap between the bevel's blade and the face of the
fence, turn the stop bolt until the gap is gone.
4.Tighten jamnut. Move your fence forward, then back against the
stop. Check the stop bolt again.
